Abstract
AIM To investigate the effect of high dose lactulose on intra-abdominal hypertension and intestinal mucosal barrier function in patients with moderate acute pancreatitis.
METHODS Ninety patients with moderate acute pancreatitis admitted to Taishun County People's Hospital from February 2015 to February 2017 were included and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 45 cases in each group. On the basis of conventional symptomatic treatment, both groups were treated with somatostatin and esomeprazole, and the observation group was additionally treated with high dose lactulose. Hospitalization time, time to abdominal pain relief, time to intestinal function recovery, intra-abdominal hypertension, intestinal mucosal barrier function, and therapeutic effect were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS Hospitalization time, time to abdominal pain relief, and time to intestinal function recovery were significantly shorter in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Intra-abdominal hypertension, endotoxin, D-lactic acid, diamine oxidase, and urinary amylase levels in the observation group after treatment were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate in the observation group (95.11%) was higher than that in the control group (80.00%; P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION The combination of high dose lactulose with somatostatin and esomeprazole can reduce intra-abdominal hypertension and endotoxin, D-lactic acid, diamine oxidase, and urinary amylase levels and enhance intestinal mucosal barrier function in patients with moderate acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Esomeprazole is commonly administered with food; however, clinical data to support this practice are lacking. We aimed to determine the effect of postprandial ingestion of esomeprazole on reflux symptoms among patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). METHODS Consecutive patients with GERD adequately controlled with esomeprazole 40 mg daily, entered a 2-week lead-in period during which esomeprazole was administered 30 min before breakfast. Patients were then randomized to continue preprandial ingestion or to ingest esomeprazole following a standardized meal. Outcomes included GERD frequency and severity indices, GERD-health-related quality of life (GERD-HRQL) questionnaire and Short Form 36 (SF-36). RESULTS Thirty-two patients (17 [53.1%] men, aged 53.5 ± 17.2 years) were included, and 16 (50%) switched to postprandial ingestion of esomeprazole. GERD frequency and severity decreased in both groups (Δ9.0 ± 7.2 vs. Δ10.0 ± 8.1, p = 0.29; Δ6.6 ± 6.8 vs. Δ10.2 ± 7.4, p = 0.57 in postprandial group vs. controls, for frequency and severity, respectively). GERD-HRQL improved in both study groups to a similar degree (Δ10.7 ± 10.5 vs. Δ10.0 ± 13.8, p = 0.97). All SF-36 subscores increased in both groups to a similar degree. In a mixed linear model, there were no differences between the study groups in the changes observed in GERD frequency (p = 0.49), severity (p = 0.32), and GERD-HRQL (p = 0.98) during the study period. CONCLUSION Switching to postprandial administration of esomeprazole is not associated with deterioration in reflux symptoms among patients with GERD. Esomeprazole seems to remain efficacious when administered after meals.

Abstract
Background A two-week course of therapy with an over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitor (PPI) is recommended for frequent heartburn. Limited research has been conducted on the sustained efficacy of short-term PPI therapy after treatment cessation. Esomeprazole 20 mg was evaluated in the seven-day follow-up period after the two-week treatment period using pooled data from two identical randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies. Methods Adults without confirmed diagnoses of gastroesophageal reflux disease experiencing heartburn at least two days/week in the past four weeks were eligible. Subjects received treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg or placebo once daily for 14 days. Heartburn episodes were documented using daily diaries. Missing data during the two-week treatment period were assumed to be days with heartburn. The proportion of subjects with heartburn resolution while on treatment and during the seven days of follow-up was assessed. Predictors of resolution during this post-treatment period were evaluated using a stepwise logistic regression model. Results All subjects in the pooled analysis set who reported diary data for at least three follow-up days were analyzed (N = 584). This cut-off was used to ensure that sufficient data were collected for these analyses. Greater run-in heartburn frequency was a significant negative predictor of heartburn resolution during follow-up (P < 0.001). Among the on-treatment efficacy variables, the best predictor of resolution during follow-up was resolution during the last seven days of treatment (odds ratio: 3.81 [95% confidence interval: 2.40, 6.05; P < 0.0001]). Conclusions Lower baseline heartburn frequency and heartburn resolution during the last seven days of treatment were associated with a greater likelihood of heartburn resolution during the seven-day follow-up. Trial registration Registered at ClinicalTrials.gov June 11, 2011: NCT01370525; NCT01370538.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Preeclampsia represents a major complication of pregnancy, associated with greater maternal and fetal complications. We compared the effects of esomeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor) and magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) on the deleterious effects observed on the mother and neonates in experimentally induced preeclampsia in rats. STUDY DESIGN Preeclampsia was induced in pregnant rats with NG-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) starting from day 10-till end of pregnancy. Pregnant rats were divided into four groups: control pregnant; untreated preeclampsia; preeclamptic rats treated with MgSO4 and preeclamptic treated with esomeprazole. Treatment was started on day 14 and continued until end of pregnancy. Systolic blood pressure, gestation duration, the total number of pups/fetal resorption, pups birth weight, and histopathology examination of the pup's organs were recorded. RESULTS In comparison with the L-NAME group, the MgSO4 and esomeprazole treatment reduced the values of systolic blood pressure; MgSO4 normalized gestational duration while esomeprazole prolonged it (post-term pregnancy); both restored number of delivered pups; with no statistical differences between the numbers of died pups between the four groups studied while with esomeprazole, out of 10 pregnant females, 2 of them had complete intrauterine fetal resorption; esomeprazole normalized birth weight and histological structure of fetal liver, kidney, and brain. On the other side, MgSO4 treatment gave rise to lower than normal birth weight and minimal tissue damage. CONCLUSION Esomeprazole and MgSO4 improved systolic blood pressure, prevented preterm labor and restored numbers of pups delivered and fetal weight. Esomeprazole prolonged gestational period post-term with subsequent improving reproductive outcome.

Abstract
Objective Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, used to treat gastro esophageal reflux disease. It is one of the widely manufactured and marketed drugs by many pharmaceutical companies in Bangladesh. The aim of the study is to compare the different physical parameters including hardness, friability, diameter, thickness, disintegration time, dissolution test and assay for quality evaluation and characterization of tablets of five different brands of Bangladeshi pharmaceutical company. The specified compendial method was followed for their evaluation test. Results Esomeprazole Mg tablets are enteric coated tablet, there was no disintegration for any brand occurred in 0.1 N HCl after 2 h and all tablets were disintegrated within 19.93 ± 0.04 to 29.05 ± 0.14 min in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8). Weight variation and Hardness were between 1.01 ± 0.29 to 2.01 ± 0.14% and 5.32 ± 0.06 to 7.12 ± 0.12 kgf respectively. Medicine released after 2 h in 0.1 N HCl were varied from 2.55 ± 0.24 to 4.47 ± 0.31% which was less than 10% and in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) the percentage of medicine release were between 100.9 and 105.9% after 60 min. In case of assay the results of all brands were between 95.28 ± 0.08 and 99.40 ± 0.11%. The obtained results of all parameters were complied with pharmacopoeial limit. So from this study we can conclude that products of esomeprazole available in Bangladeshi pharmaceutical market meet the quality parameter to satisfy therapeutic efficacy.

Abstract
AIM To compare the one-week clinical effects of single doses of dexlansoprazole and esomeprazole on grades A and B erosive esophagitis.
METHODS We enrolled 175 adult patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The patients were randomized in a 1:1 ratio into two sequence groups to define the order in which they received single doses of dexlansoprazole (n = 88) and esomeprazole (n = 87) for an intention-to-treat analysis. The primary end-points were the complete symptom resolution (CSR) rates at days 1, 3, and 7 after drug administration.
RESULTS Thirteen patients were lost to follow-up, resulting in 81 patients in each group for the per-protocol analysis. The CSRs for both groups were similar at days 1, 3 and 7. In the subgroup analysis, the female patients achieved higher CSRs in the dexlansoprazole group than in the esomeprazole group at day 3 (38.3% vs 18.4%, P = 0.046). An increasing trend toward a higher CSR was observed in the dexlansoprazole group at day 7 (55.3% vs 36.8%, P = 0.09). In the esomeprazole group, female sex was a negative predictive factor for CSR on post-administration day 1 [OR = -1.249 ± 0.543; 95%CI: 0.287 (0.099-0.832), P = 0.022] and day 3 [OR = -1.254 ± 0.519; 95%CI: 0.285 (0.103-0.789), P = 0.016]. Patients with spicy food eating habits achieved lower CSRs on day 1 [37.3% vs 21.4%, OR = -0.969 ± 0.438; 95%CI: 0.380 (0.161-0.896), P = 0.027].
CONCLUSION The overall CSR for GERD patients was similar at days 1-7 for both the dexlansoprazole and esomeprazole groups, although a higher incidence of CSR was observed on day 3 in female patients who received a single dose of dexlansoprazole.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatic fibrosis is a major health problem that requires further medical attention. Proton pump inhibitors are proven to possess other therapeutic potentials apart of their acid anti-secretory actions. AIM OF THE WORK To test possible anti-fibrotic effect of esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate in management of liver fibrosis compared to silymarin, the well-known hepatoprotective agent. MATERIALS & METHODS 40 male albino rats were divided into 4 groups: normal control group; CCl4-treated group (1 mL/kg 40% CCl4, diluted in olive oil) I.P twice weekly for 6 weeks; esomeprazole-treated group (30 mg/kg body weight); and Silymarin-treated group (100 mg/kg body weight). Both esomeprazole and silymarin were given orally daily for two weeks after the last CCl4 dose. Serum and tissue samples were assessed for histopathological and biochemical analyses. RESULTS Esomeprazole reversed hepatocellular damage, improved liver integrity, corrected major histopathological disturbances induced by CCl4 and lowered fibrosis scoring. It also improved anti-oxidant capacity and attenuated lipid peroxidation. Esomeprazole treatment resulted in down-regulation of hepatic pro-apoptotic Bax and up-regulation of anti-apoptotic Bcl2 protein expressions. In addition, it resulted in inhibition of TNF-α, TGF-β and IL-6 -mediated inflammatory responses, and retrieval of the epithelial marker e-cadherin. CONCLUSION Esomeprazole confers significant anti-fibrotic actions. Further study is needed to elucidate other probable mechanisms for this effect and to test their anti-fibrotic potential clinically.

Abstract
Background Approximately 60% of patients presenting to dentists with erosive tooth wear have significant gastroesophageal reflux (GERD), despite minor reflux symptoms. No longitudinal studies of reflux-associated erosive tooth wear and of reflux characteristics have been reported to date. The aim of this study was to characterize the longitudinal course of GERD and of associated erosive tooth wear, as well as factors predictive of its progression, in a large group of patients. Methods Seventy-two patients presenting to dentists with clinically significant erosive tooth wear and increased esophageal acid exposure by 24-h multichannel intraluminal pH-impedance measurement (MII-pH) were re-assessed clinically and by MII-pH after 1 year treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg twice-daily. Predictive factors for erosive tooth wear were assessed by logistic regression. Results At follow-up, no further progression in erosive tooth wear was observed in 53 (74%) of patients. The percentage of time with a pH < 4, the number of acid reflux episodes and the percentage of proximal esophageal reflux off-PPI did not change significantly after one year, but the number of weakly acidic reflux episodes decreased significantly in the large subgroup without progression. None of the baseline demographic, clinical, endoscopic or esophageal acid exposure characteristics were significantly associated with progression of erosive tooth wear at follow-up. Conclusions In this longitudinal study in patients with erosive tooth wear and oligosymptomatic GERD receiving esomeprazole for one year, erosive tooth wear did not progress further in the majority of patients. Background acidic esophageal reflux exposure appeared stable over time, whereas weakly acidic exposure decreased significantly in patients without erosion progression. MII-pH measurements on-PPI and with healthy controls will be useful in the further elucidation of the causal role of reflux in erosive tooth wear.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vocal process granulomas have a high tendency for persistence despite many treatment alternatives. Anti-reflux medications or botulinum toxin A injections are the main current therapies. There are no studies that compare the effects on vocal process granuloma of proton pump inhibitors plus prokinetic agents with botulinum toxin A injections. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cohort study. METHODS Adult patients reporting to our outpatient department complaining of trachyphonia and/or abnormal pharyngeal sensations who were found to have contact granulomas. Patients were divided into two groups according to the treatment: esomeprazole with mosapride citrate (n=26) or botulinum toxin A injection (n=20). The reflux symptom index and reflux finding score determined by electronic fibrolaryngoscopy were utilized to assess efficacy. RESULTS Forty-six patients were recruited (43 male; 3 female). The mean age (range) was 48.3years (38-69) and the body mass index was 23.51kg/m2 (19.13-27.89). Laryngopharyngeal reflux disease diagnosed by RSI or RFS was found in 18 and 27 patients, respectively, and 18 diagnosed without laryngopharyneal reflux disease. Twenty patients (95%) were cured in the esomeprazole with mosapride citrate group and nine (45%) in the botulinum toxin A group. Eleven (55%) patients had recurrence after botulinum toxin A injection, with an average interval of 3.1months (range 1-6). The recorded symptoms after therapy resolved within 6months with a statistically significant improvement in the esomeprazole with mosapride citrate group. CONCLUSIONS Combined proton pump inhibitor plus prokinetic drug therapy plays a significant role in the treatment of vocal process granulomas or after surgery.

Abstract
Background/Aims To investigate the effects of esomeprazole and rebamipide combination therapy on symptomatic improvement in patients with reflux esophagitis. Methods A total of 501 patients with reflux esophagitis were randomized into one of the following two treatment regimens: 40 mg esomeprazole plus 300 mg rebamipide daily (combination therapy group) or 40 mg esomeprazole daily (monotherapy group). We used a symptom questionnaire that evaluated heartburn, acid regurgitation, and four upper gastrointestinal symptoms. The primary efficacy end point was the mean decrease in the total symptom score. Results The mean decreases in the total symptom score at 4 weeks were estimated to be -18.1±13.8 in the combination therapy group and -15.1±11.9 in the monotherapy group (p=0.011). Changes in reflux symptoms from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment were -8.4±6.6 in the combination therapy group and -6.8±5.9 in the monotherapy group (p=0.009). Conclusions Over a 4-week treatment course, esomeprazole and rebamipide combination therapy was more effective in decreasing the symptoms of reflux esophagitis than esomeprazole monotherapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE The impact of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) on the pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of ceritinib was evaluated. METHODS A healthy subject drug-drug interaction (DDI) study was conducted to assess the effect of esomeprazole on the PK of a single 750 mg dose of ceritinib. To further investigate the impact of PPIs on the PK and efficacy of ceritinib in ALK-positive cancer patients, two subgroup analyses were performed. Analysis 1 evaluated ceritinib steady-state trough concentration (Ctrough,ss) and overall response rate (ORR) by concomitant use of PPIs in patients from the ASCEND-1, -2, and -3 studies; analysis 2 evaluated ceritinib single-dose and steady-state AUC0-24h and C max by concomitant PPI use in patients from ASCEND-1 using a definition of PPI usage similar to that used in the healthy subject study. RESULTS In the healthy subject study, co-administration of a single 750 mg dose of ceritinib with esomeprazole 40 mg for 6 days decreased ceritinib AUC0-∞ by 76% and C max by 79%. However, based on subgroup analysis 1, patients had similar C trough,ss and ORR regardless of concomitant PPI usage. Based on analysis 2, co-administration of a single 750 mg ceritinib dose with PPIs for 6 days in patients suggested less effect on ceritinib exposure than that observed in healthy subjects as AUC0-24h decreased by 30% and C max decreased by 25%. No clinically meaningful effect on steady-state exposure was observed after daily dosing. CONCLUSIONS Long-term administration of ceritinib with PPIs does not adversely affect the PK and efficacy of ceritinib in ALK-positive cancer patients.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) at low doses can effectively prevent gastrointestinal bleeding due to aspirin and are widely used in Japan for gastroprotection in patients taking anti-platelet agents. We examined the influence of different PPIs at low doses administered concomitantly or separately on anti-platelet functions of clopidogrel. In 41 healthy Japanese volunteers with different CYP2C19 genotypes who took clopidogrel 75 mg in the morning alone, or with omeprazole 10 mg, esomeprazole 10 mg, lansoprazole 15 mg, or rabeprazole 10 mg, either concomitantly in the morning or separately in the evening, we measured the inhibition of platelet aggregation (IPA, %) using VerifyNow P2Y12 assay at 4 h after the last clopidogrel dose on Day 7 of each regimen. IPA by clopidogrel with rabeprazole administered at lunchtime, approximately 4 h after clopidogrel, was also measured. Mean IPAs in those concomitantly receiving omeprazole, esomeprazole, lansoprazole or rabeprazole (47.2 ± 21.1%, 43.2 ± 20.2%, 46.4 ± 18.8%, and 47.3 ± 19.2%, respectively) were significantly decreased compared with those receiving clopidogrel alone (56.0%) (all ps < 0.001). This decrease was observed when PPIs were administered separately in the evening. However, IPA by clopidogrel with rabeprazole administered at lunchtime was 51.6%, which was markedly similar to that of clopidogrel alone (p = 0.114). All tested PPIs reduce the efficacy of clopidogrel when administered concomitantly. Our preliminary data suggest that administration of rabeprazole 4 h following clopidogrel may minimize potential drug-drug interactions.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effects of hydrotalcite combined with esomeprazole on gastric ulcer healing quality.
METHODS Forty-eight patients diagnosed with gastric ulcer between June 2014 and February 2016 were randomly allocated to the combination therapy group or monotherapy group. The former received hydrotalcite combined with esomeprazole, and the latter received esomeprazole alone, for 8 wk. Twenty-four healthy volunteers were recruited and acted as the healthy control group. Endoscopic ulcer healing was observed using white light endoscopy and narrow band imaging magnifying endoscopy. The composition of collagen fibers, amount of collagen deposition, expression of factor VIII and TGF-β1, and hydroxyproline content were analyzed by Masson staining, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescent imaging and ELISA.
RESULTS Following treatment, changes in the gastric microvascular network were statistically different between the combination therapy group and the monotherapy group (P < 0.05). There were significant differences (P < 0.05) in collagen deposition, expression level of Factor VIII and TGF-β1, and hydroxyproline content in the two treatment groups compared with the healthy control group. These parameters in the combination therapy group were significantly higher than in the monotherapy group (P < 0.05). The ratio of collagen I to collagen III was statistically different among the three groups, and was significantly higher in the combination therapy group than in the monotherapy group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION Hydrotalcite combined with esomeprazole is superior to esomeprazole alone in improving gastric ulcer healing quality in terms of improving microvascular morphology, degree of structure maturity and function of regenerated mucosa.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the effect of glutamine combined with esomeprazole on amino acid metabolism, bacterial translocation (BT) and inflammatory reaction in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).
METHODS Seventy patients with acute severe pancreatitis were randomly divided into either a control group or an observation group. The control group was given esomeprazole alone, and the observation group was treated with glutamine combined with esomeprazole. Amino acid metabolism, BT and inflammatory reaction were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS With regard to amino acid metabolism, serum tryptophan, histidine, lysine, arginine, phenylalanine, valine, and isoleucine in the control group were all significantly lower than those of the observation group (P < 0.05). For intestinal BT, the numbers of Lactobacilli and Bifidobacteria in the control group were significantly lower than those of the observation group, and the numbers of Staphylococci, Escherichia, and Candida were significantly higher than those of the observation group (P < 0.05). With regard to inflammatory response, serum levels of interleukin-6, hypersensitive C-reactive protein, and tumor necrosis factor-α in the control group were significantly higher than those of the observation group.
CONCLUSION Glutamine combined with esomeprazole therapy is helpful to improve amino acid metabolism, prevent BT, and reduce inflammatory reaction in patients with SAP.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hypergastrinaemia induced by proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy may cause ECL-cell and parietal-cell hyperplasia and rebound hyperacidity and dyspepsia after PPI withdrawal. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of different dosage-regimens of netazepide, a gastrin/CCK2 receptor antagonist, on PPI-induced hypergastrinaemia and elevated chromogranin A (CgA). METHODS Six groups of eight healthy subjects participated in a randomised, double-blind study of esomeprazole 40 mg daily for 28 days, in combination with netazepide 1, 5 or 25 mg or placebo, daily, during the last 14 days of esomeprazole or during 14 days after treatment withdrawal. Fasting serum gastrin and plasma CgA were measured during treatment and after withdrawal, as biomarkers of acid suppression and ECL-cell activity, respectively. Dyspepsia was monitored throughout the study. RESULTS Esomeprazole increased gastrin and CgA. Netazepide increased gastrin, but not CgA, and inhibited dose dependently the CgA response to esomeprazole. Gastrin and CgA returned to baseline within 2-3 days of esomeprazole withdrawal; netazepide did not shorten that time. There was no rebound dyspepsia after esomeprazole withdrawal. CONCLUSIONS Esomeprazole and netazepide each increase gastrin, consistent with a secondary effect of gastric acid suppression, but by different mechanisms. Esomeprazole-induced hypergastrinaemia stimulates ECL cells and thereby increases CgA. Netazepide-induced hypergastrinaemia does not increase CgA, because netazepide blocks gastrin/CCK2 receptors on ECL cells. Co-administration of netazepide 5 mg abolishes the effect of esomeprazole-induced hypergastrinaemia on ECL cells. The quick return to baseline of gastrin and CgA and absence of dyspepsia after esomeprazole withdrawal do not support the concept of rebound hyperacidity.

Abstract
Purpose This study was conducted to investigate whether a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) could enhance chemosensitivity via the inhibition of vacuolar-type H+ ATPase (V-ATPase) in cervical cancer. Materials and Methods The expression of V-ATPase was evaluated in 351 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human cervical cancer tissues using immunohistochemistry and compared with clinicopathologic risk factors for disease prognosis. The influence of cell proliferation and apoptosis following V-ATPase siRNA transfection or esomeprazole pretreatment was assessed in cervical cancer cell lines using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Results Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that V-ATPase was expressed in about 60% of cervical cancer tissue samples (211/351), and the expression was predominantly found in adenocarcinoma histology (p=0.016). Among patients with initially bulky cervical cancer (n=89), those with V-ATPase expression had shorter disease-free survival (p=0.005) and overall survival (p=0.023). Co-treatment with V-ATPase siRNA or esomeprazole with paclitaxel significantly decreased the cell proliferation of cervical cancer cell lines, including HeLa and INT407, compared to cell lines treated with paclitaxel alone (p < 0.01). Moreover, V-ATPase siRNA or esomeprazole followed by paclitaxel significantly increased the expression of active caspase-3 in these cells compared to cells treated with paclitaxel alone (both, p < 0.05). Conclusion V-ATPase was predominantly expressed in cervical adenocarcinoma, and the expression of V-ATPases was associated with poor prognosis. The inhibition of V-ATPase via siRNA or PPI (esomeprazole) might enhance the chemosensitivity of paclitaxel in cervical cancer cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapy for functional dyspepsia remains a challenge. This study aimed to evaluate esomeprazole (E) versus placebo (P) regarding (1) the effectiveness in providing relief of abdominal pain or discomfort during 16 weeks of therapy in patients with functional dyspepsia having moderate or severe symptoms; (2) the effects on gastric acid suppression and (3) the relationship between symptom relief and gastric pH. METHODS Enrolled patients were randomized to E (n = 38) or P (n = 35) in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Outcomes were measured at four 4-week intervals. Drug dose titrated at each visit, based on relief of abdominal symptoms. The 24-hour gastric pH was monitored at baseline, 4 and 8 weeks. RESULTS After 4 weeks, 71% of E patients (40mg) reported satisfactory symptom relief versus 34% of P patients (P < 0.001). When the dose for nonresponders (NR) was titrated to 40mg twice daily, the E relief rate increased to 82% versus 56% in P group (P < 0.05). During the next 4 weeks, with dose decreased by half in responders, E response rate declined to 69% versus 48% in P group (P < 0.10). When the dose was increased for NR during the last 4 weeks, E rate increased to 83% versus 57% in P group (P < 0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks for E responders and NR, patients׳ pH >4 value increased significantly compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS (1) Though E 40mg once daily is superior to P, some patients benefit from 40mg twice daily; (2) E, 40mg once daily, profoundly inhibits gastric acid secretion; (3) intragastric pH monitoring before and after therapy may help address the relationship between symptomatic relief and gastric acid secretion and (4) some patients respond to monitored titrated placebo therapy.

Abstract
The use of deuterated drug bioisosteres to obtain superior pharmacokinetic properties or to investigate biotransformations at the molecular level is a growing field of pharmaceutical research. This work presents a NMR study on the deuteration of three structurally related antisecretory proton-pump inhibitors, the sodium salts of esomeprazole, 1, pantoprazole, 2, and rabeprazole, 3. It has been found that the methylene adjacent to the sulfinyl group displays stereoselective deuteration when the sodium salts of these products are dissolved at room temperature in D2O or CD3OD, a process that also occurs very efficiently in DMSO-d6 (a solvent considered non-deuterating) if a catalytic amount of NaOH is added. The stereoselectivity of the deuteration is consequence of the asymmetry around the sulfur atom of the sulfinyl group, and the rate of the H-D exchange seems to be mainly related to the polarity of the solvents. In addition, unusually long-range (up to seven bonds) NMR deuterium isotopic effects on proton have been detected. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations (DFT/6-31G**) have been performed on the rotamers about the CH2SO bond of 1, as well as about the equivalent bond in its entiol, N-anion, and entiolate. Less conformers than possible were obtained in all cases indicating strong preference for some spatial dispositions. Computed NMR shielding agrees with the experimentally obtained chemical shifts and help in identifying the most accessible diastereotopic hydrogen.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the efficacy of third-line Helicobacter pylori eradication therapy with esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin for patients with clarithromycin- and metronidazole-based first- and second-line therapy failure. METHODS Thirty patients with first- and second-line H. pylori eradication failure were treated prospectively with esomeprazole 20mg twice daily, amoxicillin 750mg twice daily, and sitafloxacin 100mg twice daily for 7 days. After 8-12 weeks, the outcome of eradication therapy was assessed by 13C-urea breath test or stool antigen test. RESULTS All 30 patients completed the study. Eradication was successful in 25 patients and the eradication rate was 83% in the intention-to-treat and per-protocol analyses. No specific or significant adverse events were recorded in the 30 patients. Patient characteristics such as sex, body mass index, and pepsinogen I/II ratio did not differ between patients who were treated successfully and those who were not treated successfully. CONCLUSIONS Third-line H. pylori eradication therapy with esomeprazole, amoxicillin, and sitafloxacin is as safe and effective as previously reported sitafloxacin-based triple therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Esomeprazole 20 mg once daily has been shown to be effective for treating frequent heartburn over 14 days in subjects who are likely to self-treat with over-the-counter medications. These analyses were conducted to assess durability of effects and symptomatic rebound after cessation of treatment, treatment satisfaction, and rescue antacid use with esomeprazole 20 mg once daily for 14 days. METHODS Adults with frequent heartburn (≥ two days/week in the past four weeks) were randomly assigned to 14 days of double-blind treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg or placebo in two identical multicenter studies. All subjects entered a 1-week single-blind placebo follow-up period after treatment. The results of the primary efficacy endpoints were reported previously. The percentage of heartburn-free days during the 1-week follow-up, use of rescue antacids, and treatment satisfaction, measured with the Global Assessment Questions instrument, are described. RESULTS The percentage of heartburn-free days was maintained during the 1-week follow-up period; the proportion was 43% among esomeprazole subjects in these studies, suggesting no evidence of symptomatic rebound. Rescue antacid use generally decreased compared with the run-in period in the 14-day treatment and 1-week follow-up periods. Significantly more subjects taking esomeprazole were "very satisfied" or "satisfied" with treatment versus placebo (Study 1: 78% vs. 63%, respectively, P = 0.0038; Study 2: 81% vs. 60%, respectively, P = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS Subjects who are likely to self-treat their frequent heartburn with over-the-counter medications reported satisfaction with esomeprazole 20 mg. Esomeprazole's treatment effect was maintained for ≥ one week after treatment ended, with no sign of symptomatic rebound. These trials were registered at ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT01370525; NCT01370538.

Abstract
Background Most patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease experience symptomatic relapse after stopping acid-suppressive medication. The aim of this study was to compare willingness to continue treatment with esomeprazole on-demand versus continuous maintenance therapy for symptom control in patients with non-erosive reflux disease (NERD) after 6 months. Methods This multicenter, open-label, randomized, parallel-group study enrolled adults with NERD who were heartburn-free after 4 weeks’ treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg daily. Patients received esomeprazole 20 mg daily continuously or on-demand for 6 months. The primary variable was discontinuation due to unsatisfactory treatment. On-demand treatment was considered non-inferior if the upper limit of the one-sided 95 % confidence interval (CI) for the difference between treatments was <10 %. Results Of 877 patients enrolled, 598 were randomized to maintenance treatment (continuous: n = 297; on-demand: n = 301). Discontinuation due to unsatisfactory treatment was 6.3 % for on-demand and 9.8 % for continuous treatment (difference −3.5 % [90 % CI: −7.1 %, 0.2 %]). In total, 82.1 and 86.2 % of patients taking on-demand and continuous therapy, respectively, were satisfied with the treatment of heartburn and regurgitation symptoms, a secondary variable (P = NS). Mean study drug consumption was 0.41 and 0.91 tablets/day, respectively. Overall, 5 % of the on-demand group developed reflux esophagitis versus none in the continuous group (P < 0.0001). The Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale Reflux dimension was also improved for continuous versus on-demand treatment. Esomeprazole was well tolerated. Conclusions In terms of willingness to continue treatment, on-demand treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg was non-inferior to continuous maintenance treatment and reduced medication usage in patients with NERD who had achieved symptom control with initial esomeprazole treatment.

Abstract
A high throughput ultra pressure liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (UPLC–MS/MS) method with good sensitivity and selectivity has been developed and validated for simultaneous quantification of esomeprazole, rabeprazole and levosulpiride in human plasma using lansoprazole as internal standard (IS). The extraction method based on liquid–liquid extraction technique was used to extract the analytes and IS from of 50 µL of human plasma using methyl tert-butyl ether:ethyl acetate (80:20, v/v), which offers a high recovery. Chromatographic separation of analytes and IS was achieved on a Hypersil gold C18 column using gradient mobile phase consisting of 2 mM ammonium formate/acetonitrile. The flow rate was set at 0.5 mL/min to elute all the analytes and IS within 1.00 min runtime. Detection of target compounds was performed on a triple quadruple mass spectrometer by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode via positive electrospray ionization (ESI). Method validation results demonstrated that the developed method has good precision and accuracy over the concentration ranges of 0.1–2000 ng/mL for each analyte. Stability of compounds was established in a battery of stability studies, i.e., bench top, autosampler, dry extract and long-term storage stability as well as freeze-thaw cycles. The validated method has been successfully applied to analyze human plasma samples for application in pharmacokinetic studies.

Abstract
The aim of the research work was to chemically modify guargum (GG) as a pH sensitive co-polymer and formulating intestinal targeting ESO nanoparticles (NPs) using the synthesized co-polymer. Poly acrylamide-grafted-guar gum (PAAm-g-GG) co-polymer was synthesized by free radical polymerization. Chemical modification of PAAm-g-GG by alkaline hydrolysis results in formation of a pH-sensitive co-polymer. The effect of GG and acryl amide (AAm) on grafting was studied. Esomeprazole magnesium (ESO) loaded pH sensitive NPs were prepared by nano-emulsification polymer crosslinking method and characterized. Sixteen formulations were prepared and the concentration of process variables wasvaried to obtain nanoparticles of 200-600 nm. The NPs were found to be homogenous in size distribution. The encapsulation efficiency and drug loading ranged from 33.2% to 50.1% and 12.2% to 17.2% respectively. Particle size, encapsulation efficiency and drug loading increasedalong with co-polymer concentration. In-vitro release studies at pH 1.2 for 2 h, followed by pH 6.8 showed that environment pH significantly affected the drug release. SEM has shown that NPsare spherical with smooth surface. The pH sensitive PAAm-g-GGNPs resisted the initial release of the drug from the drug loaded NPs in acidic pH and delayed the release process to a longer period in alkaline environment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy might lead to clinical and histologic remission in a significant proportion of patients with symptomatic esophageal eosinophilia (>15 eos/high-power field). We aimed to evaluate systematically the efficacy of PPI therapy for these patients. METHODS A search in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and SCOPUS databases, and the American Gastroenterological Association Institute, American College of Gastroenterology, and United European Gastroenterology meetings abstract books, was performed. Primary outcomes were clinical response and histologic remission (<15 eos/high-power field) after PPI therapy. Secondary outcomes were the influence on the response to PPIs of age group, study design/quality, PPI type, doses and interval dosing, and pH monitoring results. Data were pooled using a random-effects model. RESULTS Thirty-three studies (11 prospective studies) comprising 619 patients with symptomatic esophageal eosinophilia (188 children and 431 adults) were included. PPI therapy led to a clinical response in 60.8% (95% confidence interval, 48.38%-72.2%; I(2) = 80.2) and histologic remission in 50.5% (95% confidence interval, 42.2%-58.7%; I(2) = 67.5) of patients. No differences were observed regarding the study population (children vs adults), the type of publication, or its quality. PPIs were nonsignificantly more effective in prospective studies (52.6% vs 39.1%) administered twice daily compared with once daily (55.9% vs 49.7%), and with pathologic pH monitoring (65.4% vs 49.3%). A significant publication bias in favor of studies reporting histologic responses to PPIs was observed. CONCLUSIONS PPI therapy induces clinicohistologic remission in half of patients with symptomatic esophageal eosinophilia. This finding should be interpreted with caution because of poor-quality evidence, heterogeneity, and publication bias.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the effect of first line esomeprazole (EPZ)-based triple therapy on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication.
METHODS: A total of 80 Japanese patients with gastritis who were diagnosed as positive for H. pylori infection by endoscopic biopsy-based or 13C-urea breath tests were included in this study. The average age of the patients was 57.2 years (male/female, 42/38). These patients were treated by first-line eradication therapy with EPZ 40 mg/d, amoxicillin 1500 mg/d, and clarithromycin 400 mg/d for 7 d. All drugs were given twice per day. Correlations between H. pylori eradication, CYP2C19 genotype, and serum pepsinogen (PG) level were analyzed. This study was registered with the UMIN Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000009642).
RESULTS: The H. pylori eradication rates by EPZ-based triple therapy evaluated by intention-to-treat and per protocol were 67.5% and 68.4%, respectively, which were similar to triple therapies with other first-generation proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). The eradication rates in three different CYP2C19 genotypes, described as extensive metabolizer (EM), intermediate metabolizer, and poor metabolizer, were 52.2%, 72.1%, and 84.6%, respectively. The H. pylori eradication rate was significantly lower in EM than non-EM (P < 0.05). The serum PG I level and PG I/II ratio were significantly increased after eradication of H. pylori (P < 0.01), suggesting that gastric atrophy was improved by H. pylori eradication. Thus, first-line eradication by EPZ-based triple therapy for patients with H. pylori-positive gastritis was influenced by CYP2C19 genotype, and the eradication rate was on the same level with other first-generation PPIs in the Japanese population.
CONCLUSION: The results from this study suggest that there is no advantage to EPZ-based triple therapy on H. pylori eradication compared to other first-generation PPIs.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are one of the most frequently prescribed medications across the globe. Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, and it is currently the most widely prescribed PPI. The safety profile of esomeprazole is extremely favorable with only minor side effects, like headache and diarrhea, that are encountered in day to day practice. We report a case of a young female with symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease who developed galactorrhea after starting esomeprazole therapy. Resolution of galactorrhea after stopping the drug and self-rechallenge by the patient herself with reappearance of galactorrhea confirmed the culprit to be esomeprazole only. We postulate that esomeprazole may have a mild inhibitory effect on CYP3A4, which leads to decreased metabolism of estrogen, thereby increasing serum estrogen levels. Estrogen causes stimulation and production of prolactin release, which results in development of galactorrhea. This is the first case of esomeprazole induced galactorrhea, to the best of our knowledge.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are among the most prescribed medications worldwide, however, there is growing concern regarding potential negative effects on bone health. The aim was to examine the effect of dose and type of PPI use on subsequent use of osteoporosis medication and fractures in older Australian women. METHODS Data were included from 4432 participants (born 1921-26) in the 2002 survey of the Australian Longitudinal Study on Women's Health. Medication data were from the national pharmaceutical administrative database (2003-2012, inclusive). Fractures were sourced from linked hospital datasets available for four major States of Australia. Competing risk regression models used PPI exposure as a time-dependent covariate and either time to first osteoporosis medication prescription or fracture as the outcome, with death as a competing risk. RESULTS Of the 2328 PPI users and 2104 PPI non-users, 827 (36%) and 550 (26%) became users of osteoporosis medication, respectively. PPI use was associated with an increased risk of subsequent use of osteoporosis medication (adjusted sub-hazard ratio [SHR]=1.28; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.13-1.44) and subsequent fracture (SHR=1.29, CI=1.08-1.55). Analysis with PPI categorized according to defined daily dose (DDD), showed some evidence for a dose-response effect (osteoporosis medication: <400 DDD: SHR=1.23, CI=1.06-1.42 and ≥400 DDD: SHR=1.39, CI=1.17-1.65, compared with non-users; SHRs were in the same range for fractures). Esomeprazole was the most common PPI prescribed (22.9%). Analysis by type of PPI use showed an increased subsequent risk for: (1) use of osteoporosis medication for rabeprazole (SHR=1.51, CI=1.08-2.10) and esomeprazole (SHR=1.48, CI=1.17-1.88); and (2) fractures for rabeprazole (SHR=2.06, CI=1.37-3.10). Users of multiple types of PPI also had increased risks for use of osteoporosis medication and fractures. CONCLUSION An appropriate benefit/risk assessment should be made when prescribing PPIs, especially for esomeprazole and rabeprazole, as osteoporosis and fracture risks were increased in this cohort of elderly females subsequent to PPI prescription.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High-dose intravenous esomeprazole is the only approved pharmacological treatment for the prevention of peptic ulcer rebleeding (currently approved in over 100 countries worldwide), but has not yet been approved in China. This study aimed to evaluate a high-dose esomeprazole intravenous regimen vs. an active control (cimetidine) for the prevention of rebleeding in Chinese patients with a high risk of peptic ulcer rebleeding who had undergone primary endoscopic hemostatic treatment. METHODS This was a parallel-group study conducted at 20 centers in China. The study comprised a randomized, double-blind, intravenous treatment phase of 72 h in which 215 patients received either high-dose esomeprazole (80 mg + 8 mg/h) or cimetidine (200 mg + 60 mg/h), followed by an open-label oral treatment phase in which all patients received esomeprazole 40 mg tablets once daily for 27 days. The primary outcome was the rate of clinically significant rebleeding within the first 72 h after initial endoscopic hemostatic therapy. Secondary outcomes included the rates of clinically significant rebleeding within 7 and 30 days; proportions of patients who had endoscopic retreatment and other surgery due to rebleeding; and number of blood units transfused. RESULTS The rate of clinically significant rebleeding within 72 h was low overall (3.3%) and numerically lower in patients treated with esomeprazole compared with cimetidine (0.9% vs. 5.6%). Overall, the results of the secondary outcomes also showed a numerical trend towards superiority of esomeprazole over cimetidine. All treatments were well tolerated. CONCLUSION In this phase 3, multicenter, randomized trial conducted in China, esomeprazole showed a numerical trend towards superior clinical benefit over cimetidine in the prevention of rebleeding in patients who had successfully undergone initial hemostatic therapy of a bleeding peptic ulcer, with a similar safety and tolerability profile. These findings suggest that esomeprazole may be an alternative treatment option to cimetidine for this indication in China. FUNDING AstraZeneca.

Abstract
Two novel simple, specific, accurate and precise spectrophotometric methods manipulating ratio spectra are developed and validated for simultaneous determination of Esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate (ESO) and Naproxen (NAP) namely; absorbance subtraction and ratio difference. The results were compared to that of the conventional spectrophotometric methods namely; dual wavelength and isoabsorptive point coupled with first derivative of ratio spectra and derivative ratio. The suggested methods were validated in compliance with the ICH guidelines and were successfully applied for determination of ESO and NAP in their laboratory prepared mixtures and pharmaceutical preparation. No preliminary separation steps are required for the proposed spectrophotometeric procedures. The statistical comparison showed that there is no significant difference between the proposed methods and the reported method with respect to both accuracy and precision.

Abstract
Background Heartburn and other symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux occur in ~30 % of survey respondents in multiple countries worldwide. Heartburn and acid regurgitation are common complaints in the pharmacy, where patients frequently seek relief through medication and advice. The growing number of proton-pump inhibitors available in the over-the-counter setting provides an efficacious choice to patients experiencing frequent heartburn. Pharmacists can assist patients in their treatment decisions whilst inquiring about alarm symptoms that should prompt a physician referral. Aim of the review Provide pharmacists with a review of current clinical research and expert guidelines on use of over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitors. Methods This narrative review was conducted to identify publications relevant to the following themes: overview of available treatments for frequent episodes of heartburn/acid regurgitation; treatment algorithms providing guidance on when to use over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitors; and the role of the pharmacist in the use of over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitors. Results Frequent symptoms of acid reflux, such as heartburn and acid regurgitation, can interfere substantially with daily life activities. Proton-pump inhibitors are the most efficacious treatment for frequent reflux symptoms and are recommended as an appropriate initial treatment in uncomplicated cases. Proton-pump inhibitors have varying pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics across the class; 20 mg esomeprazole has higher bioavailability and exposure than over-the-counter omeprazole, for example. However, differences in clinical efficacy for symptom relief have not been demonstrated. The safety and tolerability of proton-pump inhibitors have been well established in clinical trial and post-marketing settings, and use of a short regimen is associated with a very low likelihood of missing a more serious condition. Pharmacists can assist patients with accurate self-diagnosis by asking short, simple questions to characterize the nature, severity, and frequency of symptoms. Additionally, pharmacists can inquire about alarm symptoms that should prompt referral to a physician. Pharmacists should inform those patients for whom over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitors are appropriate on their proper use. Conclusion Over-the-counter proton-pump inhibitors have a valuable role in the treatment of frequent heartburn. Pharmacists have the opportunity to guide patients through selection of the best treatment option for their symptoms.

Abstract
AIM: To compare symptom control with esomeprazole regimens for non-erosive reflux disease and chronic gastritis in patients with a negative endoscopy.
METHODS: This randomized, open-label study was designed in line with clinical practice in China. Patients with typical reflux symptoms for ≥ 3 mo and a negative endoscopy who had a Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Questionnaire score ≥ 8 were randomized to initial treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg once daily either for 8 wk or for 2 wk. Patients with symptom relief could enter another 24 wk of maintenance/on-demand treatment, where further courses of esomeprazole 20 mg once daily were given if symptoms recurred. The primary endpoint was the symptom control rate at week 24 of the maintenance/on-demand treatment period. Secondary endpoints were symptom relief rate, success rate (defined as patients who had symptom relief after initial treatment and after 24 wk of maintenance treatment), time-to-first-relapse and satisfaction rate.
RESULTS: Based on the data collected in the modified intention-to-treat population (MITT; patients in the ITT population with symptom relief after initial esomeprazole treatment, n = 262), the symptom control rate showed a small but statistically significant difference in favor of the 8-wk regimen (94.9% vs 87.3%, P = 0.0473). Among the secondary endpoints, based on the data collected in the ITT population (n = 305), the 8-wk group presented marginally better results in symptom relief after initial esomeprazole treatment (88.3% vs 83.4%, P = 0.2513) and success rate over the whole study (83.8% vs 72.8%, P = 0.0258). The 8-wk regimen was found to provide a 46% reduction in risk of relapse vs the 2-wk regimen (HR = 0.543; 95%CI: 0.388-0.761). In addition, fewer unscheduled visits and higher patient satisfaction supported the therapeutic benefits of the 8-wk regimen over the 2-wk regimen. Safety was comparable between the two groups, with both regimens being well tolerated.
CONCLUSION: Chinese patients diagnosed with chronic gastritis achieved marginally better control of reflux symptoms with an 8-wk vs a 2-wk esomeprazole regimen, with a similar safety profile.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate a levofloxacin-doxycycline-based triple therapy with or without a susceptibility culture test in non-responders to Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication.
METHODS: A total of 142 (99 women, 43 men; mean 53.0 ± 12.7 years) non-responders to more than two H. pylori eradication therapies underwent susceptibility culture tests or were treated with a seven-day triple therapy consisting of esomeprazole, 20 mg b.i.d., levofloxacin, 500 mg b.i.d., and doxycycline, 100 mg b.i.d., randomly associated with (n = 71) or without (n = 71) Lactobacillus casei DG. H. pylori status was checked in all patients at enrollment and at least 8 wk after the end of therapy. Compliance and tolerability of regimens were also assessed.
RESULTS: H. pylori eradication was achieved in < 50% of patients [per prototol (PP) = 49%; intention to treat (ITT) = 46%]. Eradication rate was higher in patients administered probiotics than in those without (PP = 55% vs 43%; ITT = 54% vs 40%). Estimated primary resistance to levofloxacin was 18% and multiple resistance was 31%. Therapy was well tolerated, and side effects were generally mild, with only one patient experiencing severe effects.
CONCLUSION: Third-line levofloxacin-doxycycline triple therapy had a low H. pylori eradication efficacy, though the success and tolerability of this treatment may be enhanced with probiotics.

Abstract
Clopidogrel is a widely used antiplatelet agent for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with stable coronary heart disease, acute coronary syndromes and ischemic stroke. Even though clopidogrel is safer than aspirin in terms of risk for gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding, the elderly, and patients with a history of prior GI bleeding, with Helicobacter pylori infection or those who are also treated with aspirin, anticoagulants, corticosteroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are at high risk for GI complications when treated with clopidogrel. Accordingly, proton pump inhibitors are frequently administered in combination with clopidogrel to reduce the risk for GI bleeding. Nevertheless, pharmacodynamic studies suggest that omeprazole might attenuate the antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel. However, in observational studies, this interaction does not appear to translate into increased cardiovascular risk in patients treated with this combination. Moreover, in the only randomized, double-blind study that assessed the cardiovascular implications of combining clopidogrel and omeprazole, patients treated with clopidogrel/omeprazole combination had reduced risk for GI events and similar risk for cardiovascular events than patients treated with clopidogrel and placebo. However, the premature interruption of the study and the lack of power analysis in terms of the cardiovascular endpoint do not allow definite conclusions regarding the cardiovascular safety of clopidogrel/omeprazole combination. Other proton pump inhibitors do not appear to interact with clopidogrel. Nevertheless, given the limitations of existing observational and interventional studies, the decision to administer proton pump inhibitors to patients treated with clopidogrel should be individualized based on the patient’s bleeding and cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
AIM: To explore the efficacy of esomeprazole combined with Deanxit in the treatment of non-erosive gastrooesophageal reflux disease (NERD) with depression in elderly patients and their impact on quality of life.
METHODS: From January 2012 to December 2013, 82 elderly NERD outpatients with depression treated at our department were randomly assigned into either a control group or an observation group (n = 41 for each). Both groups received 20 mg esomeprazole orally before breakfast, and only the observation group received 20 mg Deanxit orally after breakfast for eight consecutive weeks. The gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) questionnaire was used to analyze the overall and individual symptom scores before and after treatment. The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD), Zung self-rating depression scale (SDS) and the Chinese version of SF-36 scale were employed to evaluate the improved status of depression and quality of life. Meanwhile, the adverse reactions during medication were recorded.
RESULTS: The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (92.7% vs 75.6%, P < 0.05). No significant difference was observed in symptoms, depression or quality of life before treatment between the two groups, but the above parameters were significantly better after treatment in both groups (P < 0.05). In comparison with the control group, the observation group had significantly decreased scores of overall and individual symptoms of the GERD questionnaire and HAMD and SDS scores, but increased scores of body and psychological related quality of life (P < 0.05). Adverse reactions were mild, and similar between the two groups (P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole combined with Deanxit has a better effect than esomeprazole alone in the treatment of elderly NERD with depression in terms of improved symptoms, quality of life and depression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the resolution of heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)-related sleep disturbances during the first 14 days of treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg compared to placebo in subjects with frequent nighttime heartburn and GERD-related sleep disturbances. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This was a post hoc analysis of 2 week data from two previously published, similarly designed randomized, placebo-controlled trials of 4 weeks' duration comparing esomeprazole 20 mg, 40 mg (one study), and placebo. Inclusion and exclusion criteria for both trials were the same. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NCT00628342; NCT00660660. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The main outcome measures for this analysis were the resolution and/or relief of GERD-related sleep disturbances during 2 weeks of treatment with esomeprazole 20 mg or placebo. Resolution and/or relief of heartburn symptoms were also measured. RESULTS In trial 1, 455 subjects were randomized, with 225 and 229 receiving esomeprazole 20 mg and placebo, respectively. In trial 2, 276 subjects were randomized, with 142 and 132 receiving esomeprazole and placebo, respectively. After 2 weeks, significantly more subjects who received esomeprazole 20 mg (50.5% [95% confidence interval: 43.8%-57.1%] and 39.4% [31.2%-47.6%] in trials 1 and 2, respectively) had resolution of sleep disturbances compared to placebo (19.9% [14.6%-25.2%] and 16.0% [9.6%-22.4%], respectively; p < 0.0001 for both trials). The median time to resolution of sleep disturbances with esomeprazole 20 mg was 1 day in both trials. After 2 weeks, significantly more subjects receiving esomeprazole 20 mg (32.3% [26.1%-38.5%] and 26.3% [18.9%-33.6%] in trials 1 and 2, respectively) had resolution of nighttime heartburn symptoms compared to placebo (5.4% [2.4%-8.4%] and 4.8% [1.1%-8.5%], respectively; p < 0.0001 for both trials). CONCLUSIONS Esomeprazole 20 mg significantly and effectively reduced nighttime heartburn and GERD-related sleep disturbances in the first 2 weeks of treatment compared to placebo, with rapid resolution of sleep disturbances in the first days of treatment.

Abstract
AIM: To explore the clinical effects of esomeprazole combined with mosapride in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
METHODS: One hundred and sixteen patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease were randomly divided into either an observation group or a control group. The observation group was treated by esomeprazole combined with mosapride, and the control group was treated by esomeprazole alone. The scores of gastroesophageal reflux disease-Q (GERD-Q), the rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and the effective rate were compared for the two groups.
RESULTS: The scores of GERD-Q at 2, 4, and 8 wk post treatment were lower than that prior treatment (15.80 ± 2.32, 11.80 ± 1.88, 10.94 ± 1.32 vs 19.23 ± 2.75; 17.02 ± 2.06, 13.52 ± 1.77, 11.41 ± 1.46 vs 19.56 ± 2.55; P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the scores of GERD-Q among different time points (19.23 ± 2.75 vs 19.56 ± 2.55, 15.80 ± 2.32 vs 17.02 ± 2.06, 11.80 ± 1.88 vs 13.52 ± 1.77, 10.94 ± 1.32 vs 11.41 ± 1.46, P > 0.05). The effective rate for the observation group was significantly higher than that for the control group (82.76% vs 65.52%, P < 0.05). The rates of H. pylori infection post treatment for the two groups were lower than those prior treatment (17.24% vs 48.28%, 24.14% vs 50.00%, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of H. pylori infection post treatment between the two groups (17.24% vs 24.14%, P > 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole combined with mosapride has good clinical effects in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease with regards to improved effective rate, scores of GERD-Q, and reduced rate of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the effect of mosapride combined with esomeprazole in the treatment of non-erosive reflux disease (NERD).
METHODS: Eighty patients with NERD treated from January 2011 to March 2014 were randomly and equally divided into two groups: and observation group and a control group. The observation group was treated with mosapride and esomeprazole for 8 wk, and the control group was treated with omeprazole and domperidone for 8 wk. Before and 8 wk after treatment, gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (Gerd Q) survey and high-resolution esophageal manometry (including lower esophageal sphincter pressure and clearance ability of distal esophageal body) were performed, and clinical effects were compared between the two groups.
RESULTS: After treatment, Gerd Q scores in both the observation group and control group were significantly lower than pretreatment scores (9.8 ± 2.5 vs 7.0 ± 2.0; 10.1 ± 2.1 vs 8.3 ± 2.2; P < 0.05), and Gerd Q score was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (92.5% vs 72.5%, P < 0.05). Lower esophageal sphincter pressures in both groups were significantly increased after treatment (20.88 mmHg ± 3.91 mmHg vs 12.13 mmHg ± 5.89 mmHg; 17.59 mmHg ± 5.18 mmHg vs 11.85 mmHg ± 6.32 mmHg; P < 0.05), and the increase was more significant in the observation group (P < 0.05). The amplitude of the distal esophageal body in the observation group was significantly higher than pretreatment value (72.70 mmHg ± 29.37 mmHg vs 65.85 mmHg ± 25.53 mmHg, P < 0.05), and the posttreatment value in the control group (72.70 mmHg ± 29.37 mmHg vs 65.85 mmHg ± 25.53 mmHg, P < 0.05). The rates of effective contraction in both groups were significantly increased after treatment (92.5% vs 62.5%; 85.0% vs 65.0%; P < 0.05), and the increase was more significant in the observation group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Mosapride combined with esomeprazole can improve clinical symptoms (including reflux, heartburn and retrosternal pain), and increase the lower esophageal sphincter pressure and the clearance ability of diatal esophageal body in NERD patients.

Abstract
The known factors that have contributed to the decline of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication rate include antibiotic resistance, poor compliance, high gastric acidity, high bacterial load, and cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) polymorphism. Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) is important in the eradication regimen. The principal enzyme implicated in the metabolism of PPIs is CYP2C19. The effects of PPI depend on metabolic enzyme, cytochrome P450 enzymes, and CYP2C19 with genetic differences in the activity of this enzyme (the homozygous EM, heterozygous EM (HetEM), and poor metabolizer). The frequency of the CYP2C19 polymorphism is highly varied among different ethnic populations. The CYP2C19 genotype is a cardinal factor of H. pylori eradication in patients taking omeprazole- based or lansoprazole-based triple therapies. In contrast, the CYP2C19 polymorphism has no significant effect on the rabeprazole-based or esomeprazole-based triple therapies. The efficacy of levofloxacin-based rescue triple therapy might be also affected by the CYP2C19 polymorphism, but CYP2C19 genotypes did not show obvious impact on other levofloxacin-based rescue therapies. Choice of different PPIs and/or increasing doses of PPIs should be individualized based on the pharmacogenetics background of each patient and pharmacological profile of each drug. Other possible factors influencing gastric acid secretion (e.g., IL-1β- 511 polymorphism) would be also under consideration.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the optimum period of treatment for post endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcers.
METHODS: Patients who underwent ESD for gastric cancer were randomized to two groups and treated with esomeprazole 20 mg per day for 4 wk (4W group) or 2 wk (2W group). At 4 wk after ESD, we measured the size of the artificial ulcers by endoscopy and determined the ulcer healing rate, compared with the size of the ESD specimens. This randomized controlled trial study was approved by our ethics committee and registered in the UMIN Clinical Trial Registry.
RESULTS: A total of 60 consecutive patients were included in the study. All patients received rebamipide 300 mg per day for 4 wk. One patient in 2W group who showed bleeding within two weeks and received endoscopic treatment was excluded from further analysis. The numbers of patients with ulcers in the healing/scar stage in the 2W and 4W groups at 4 wk after ESD were 20/6 and 28/5, respectively, with no significant difference. The ulcer healing rate in the 2W and 4W groups were 96.1% [95% confidence interval (CI): 94.6%-97.55] vs 94.8% (95%CI: 92.6%-97.1%), respectively, with no statistical difference (UMIN000006951).
CONCLUSION: Two-wk treatment with a proton pump inhibitor is as effective as four-week treatment for healing post ESD ulcers.

Abstract
Drug reaction with eosinophilia ans systemic symptoms (DRESS) is a severe medication-induced adverse reaction, which can threaten patient's life. Clinical symptoms and organ failures present wide variability. Furthermore, the latency period is long, so that diagnosis could be a real challenge in the intensive care unit. We report the case of a woman developing a DRESS after neurosurgery complicated by a nosocomial infection.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the clinical effects of early enteral nutrition (EN) in combination with esomeprazole for digestive complications in elderly patients after artificial hip joint replacement.
METHODS: One hundred and twenty elderly patients receiving artificial hip joint replacement at our hospital from January 2009 to December 2013 were randomly divided into either a control group or an observation group (n = 60 for each group). Both groups received conventional postoperative therapy. The control group was additionally treated with esomeprazole alone, and the observation group was additionally given early EN in combination with esomeprazole. After treatment, the pH value of gastric juice, incidence of gastric mucosal lesions, nutritional indices and rate of postoperative digestive complications were compared, and adverse reactions were observed.
RESULTS: Immediately after surgery, the pH value of gastric juice was similar between the two groups (P > 0.05). However, on days 1, 3 and 7 after surgery, the pH values of gastric juice were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05 for all). The incidence of gastric mucosal lesions in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group. Before surgery, there was no statistical differences in albumin, prealbumin, total protein and body weight (P > 0.05 for all). After 7 d of treatment, in comparison to the control group, the above nutritional indices in the observation group were statistically higher (P < 0.05 for all). As to digestive complications, the numbers of cases with nausea or vomiting, regurgitation or belching, abdominal distension or constipation, loss of appetite, and gastrointestinal hemorrhage were respectively 6, 5, 5, 5 and 3, respectively, in the observation group, which were statistically lower than those in the control group (17, 14, 13, 15 and 8; P < 0.05 for all); however, the number of cases with abdominal pain or diarrhea in the two groups was similar (P > 0.05). During treatment, only one case of elevated alanine transaminase was observed in the observation group.
CONCLUSION: Early EN in combination with esomeprazole in elderly patients after artificial hip joint replacement can effectively decrease gastric acidity for protection of the gastric mucosa, improve nutrition status, and significantly reduce the rate of digestive complications with less adverse reactions.

Abstract
AIM: To assess the clinical effects of esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets, amoxicillin capsules and clarithromycin capsules combined with traditional Chinese medicine decoction in the treatment of peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB).
METHODS: Ninety-six patients with PUB were divided into either a traditional Chinese medicine plus Western medicine group (n = 61) or a Western medicine alone group (n = 35) according to the medications. The Western medicine alone group was treated with esomeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablets + amoxicillin capsules + clarithromycin capsules, and the combination group was additionally given traditional Chinese medicine decoction on the basis of Western medicine treatment. The hemostasis time, total symptom score, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication rate and clinical effects were compared for the two groups.
RESULTS: The total symptom scores for the two groups were significantly lower after treatment than prior treatment (10.62 ± 2.53 vs 33.50 ± 2.91, 17.30 ± 1.98 vs 32.25 ± 2.48, P < 0.05). The hemostasis time and total symptom score in the combination group were significantly lower than those in the Western medicine alone group (3.02 d ± 1.48 d vs 4.48 d ± 1.72 d, 10.62 ± 2.53 vs 17.30 ± 1.98, P < 0.05). The H. pylori eradication rate in the combination group was higher than that in the Western medicine alone group (93.44% vs 80.00%, P < 0.05). The cure rate and total effective rate were significantly higher in the combination group than in the Western medicine alone group (59.02% vs 34.29%, 93.44% vs 82.86%, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole, amoxicillin and clarithromycin combined with traditional Chinese medicine decoction can improve clinical symptoms, shorten hemostasis time, increase H. pylori eradication rate and improve clinical effects in patients with PUB.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of esomeprazole-based triple therapy compared with lansoprazole therapy as first-line eradication therapy for patients with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in usual post-marketing use in Japan, where the clarithromycin (CAM) resistance rate is 30%.
METHODS: For this multicenter, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial, we recruited patients (≥ 20 years of age) with H. pylori infection from 20 hospitals in Japan. We randomly allocated patients to esomeprazole therapy (esomeprazole 20 mg, CAM 400 mg, amoxicillin (AC) 750 mg for the first 7 d, with all drugs given twice daily) or lansoprazole therapy (lansoprazole 30 mg, CAM 400 mg, AC 750 mg for the first 7 d, with all drugs given twice daily) using a minimization method with age, sex, and institution as adjustment factors. Our primary outcome was the eradication rate by intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. H. pylori eradication was confirmed by a urea breath test from 4 to 8 wk after cessation of therapy.
RESULTS: ITT analysis revealed the eradication rates of 69.4% (95%CI: 61.2%-76.6%) for esomeprazole therapy and 73.9% (95%CI: 65.9%-80.6%) for lansoprazole therapy (P = 0.4982). PP analysis showed eradication rate of 76.9% (95%CI: 68.6%-83.5%) for esomeprazole therapy and 79.8% (95%CI: 71.9%-86.0%) for lansoprazole therapy (P = 0.6423). There were no differences in adverse effects between the two therapies.
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole showed non-inferiority and safety in a 7 day-triple therapy for eradication of H. pylori compared with lansoprazole.

Abstract
A complex, sensitive, and precise high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the profiling of impurities of esomeprazole in low-dose aspirin and esomeprazole capsules has been developed, validated, and used for the determination of impurities in pharmaceutical products. Esomeprazole and its related impurities’ development in the presence of aspirin was traditionally difficult due to aspirin’s sensitivity to basic conditions and esomeprazole’s sensitivity to acidic conditions. When aspirin is under basic, humid, and extreme temperature conditions, it produces salicylic acid and acetic acid moieties. These two byproducts create an acidic environment for the esomeprazole. Due to the volatility and migration phenomenon of the produced acetic acid and salicylic acid from aspirin in the capsule dosage form, esomeprazole’s purity, stability, and quantification are affected. The objective of the present research work was to develop a gradient reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method to separate all the degradation products and process-related impurities from the main peak. The impurities were well-separated on a RP8 column (150 mm × 4.6mm, X-terra, RP8, 3.5μm) by the gradient program using a glycine buffer (0.08 M, pH adjusted to 9.0 with 50% NaOH), acetonitrile, and methanol at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min−1 with detection wavelength at 305 nm and column temperature at 30°C. The developed method was found to be specific, precise, linear, accurate, rugged, and robust. LOQ values for all of the known impurities were below reporting thresholds. The drug was subjected to stress conditions of hydrolysis, oxidation, photolysis, and thermal degradation in the presence of aspirin. The developed RP-HPLC method was validated according to the present ICH guidelines for specificity, linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection, limit of quantification, ruggedness, and robustness.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Peptic ulcer disease (PUD), encompassing gastric and duodenal ulcers is the most prevalent gastrointestinal disorder. The pathophysiology of PUD involves an imbalance between offensive factors like acid, pepsin and defensive factors like nitric oxide and growth factors. The clinical evaluation of antiulcer drugs showed tolerance, incidence of relapses and side-effects that make their efficacy arguable. An indigenous drug like Musa sapientum possessing fewer side-effects is the major thrust area of present day research, aiming at a better and safer approach for the management of PUD. MATERIAL AND METHODS The unripe plantain bananas (Musa sapientum) were shade-dried, powdered and used for phytochemical analysis and as antiulcer drug. In our present study Group I rats served as control and were treated with saline, Group II was indomethacin-induced ulcerated rats, Group III received aqueous extract of Musa sapientum along with indomethacin and Group IV received esomeprazole along with indomethacin for 21 days. The anti-ulcerogenic activity was investigated by performing hematological, mucosal, antioxidant profile in comparison with the standard drug esomeprazole. RESULTS Our findings from High - Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) analysis showed that Musa sapientum has an active compound a monomeric flavonoid (leucocyanidin) with anti-ulcerogenic activity. Results were expressed as mean ± SD. All our results are in congruous with the results of standard drug esomeprazole. CONCLUSION It could be clearly concluded that administration of the aqueous extract of Musa sapientum at the dose used in this study tends to ameliorate ulcers. Its use in indigenous medicine should be scientifically scrutinized with further research.

Abstract
The present study was an attempt to formulate and evaluate enteric coated tablets for esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate. Different core tablets were prepared and formulation (F-1) was selected for further enteric coating, based on the disintegration time. Seal coating was applied to achieve 3% weight gain using opadry®. Enteric coating was carried out using different polymers like Eudragit L-30 D-55, hydroxy propyl methylcellulose phthalate, cellulose acetate phthalate and Acryl-EZE® to achieve 5% weight gain. Disintegration studies showed that the formulations failed in 0.1 N HCl media. Hence the quantity of enteric coating was increased to 8% w/w. In vitro analysis of the developed tablets was carried out. Results from disintegration time and dissolution rate studies indicate that all the esomeprazole enteric tablets prepared possess good integrity, desirable for enteric coated tablets. Among the polymers studied, the methacrylic polymers exhibited better dissolution rate than the cellulose polymers. Stability studies indicate that the prepared formulations were stable for a period of three months. This study concluded that enteric coated tablets of esomeprazole can be prepared using any of the enteric coating polymer studied using a minimal weight gain of 8%.

Abstract
Esomeprazole is the first proton pump inhibitor (PPI) to be developed as a single optical isomer. Ever since its first clinical application seven years ago, esomeprazole has attracted more and more attention due to relatively unique metabolism (compared to other PPIs), efficient and durable acid control, better safety and lower incidence of adverse reactions. In this article, we will review the clinical applications of esomeprazole in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Helicobacter pylori infection, peptic ulcers, NSAID-related gastrointestinal disorders and upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the therapeutic effect of esomeprazole and mosapride on aged hypotensive type LES esophageal motility dysfunction.
METHODS: A total of 57 aged hypotensive type LES esophageal motility dysfunction patients were divided into treatment group (n = 29) and control group (n = 28). Patients in treatment group were given esomeprazole 20 mg per day and mosapride 5 mg three times daily for 1 mo while patients in control group were given mosapride 5 mg three times daily for 1 mo. After medication treatment, the clinical symptoms, lower esophageal sphincter (LES) pressure and esophageal motility were observed.
RESULTS: Fifty seven cases of patients completed the study. The total effective rate of treatment group was 86.2%, which was significantly higher than that of control group (60.7%). LES pressure was improved significantly in both groups (1.82 ± 0.36 vs 1.09 ± 0.18, P < 0.001; 1.91 ± 0.45 vs 1.06 ± 0.17, P < 0.001, respectively). Esophageal motility became better in both groups, but no statistical difference was observed between them after treatment(48.3% vs 53.6%, P = 0.193).
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole and mosapride are effective for aged hypotensive type LES esophageal motility dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of CO2 for pneumoperitoneum during laparoscopic surgery provokes a decrement in the gastric pH. Since the incidence rate of PONV increases after laparoscopic surgery, the possibility of lung aspiration of gastric juice with a low pH during a postanesthetic emergence may increase and this could be fatal for the patient. We conducted this study to determine the effects of esomeprazole premedication on inhibiting the decrement of the gastric pH during laparoscopic surgery. METHODS 40 adult patients with no underlying diseases were chosen and 20 patients each were grouped as C (the control group) and E (the esomeprazole group). In both group, 0.2 mg glycopyrrolate was given intramuscularly 30 minutes prior to the surgery. In group E, esomeprazole was given orally 2 hours prior to the surgery. The pH, PaCO2, and PETCO2 were measured via pH probe, an ABGA and an capnogram at preinsufflation and 15, 30 and 60 minutes after the CO2 insufflation and right before CO2 exhaustion (predeflation). RESULTS Comparing the measurements of the gastric pH between group E and group C, all the results showed a significant increase in group E (P < 0.05). The difference of the PaCO2 and PETCO2 in the two groups was not significance. CONCLUSIONS In contrast to the decrease in the gastric pH as the PaCO2 and PETCO2 increased in group C, the gastric pH in group E remained high until the end of the surgery despite the increase in the PaCO2 and PETCO2. Esomeprazole premedication seem to have an effect for inhibiting the gastric pH decrement regardless of the increase in the PaCO2 and PETCO2 during laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
AIM: To clarify whether there is any difference in the symptom relief in patients with reflux esophagitis following the administration of four Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs).
METHODS: Two hundred and seventy-four patients with erosive reflux esophagitis were randomized to receive 8 wk of 20 mg omeprazole (n = 68), 30 mg of lansoprazole (n = 69), 40 mg of pantoprazole (n = 69), 40 mg of esomeprazole (n = 68) once a day in the morning. Daily changes in heartburn and acid reflux symptoms in the first 7 d of administration were assessed using a six-point scale (0: none; 1: mild; 2: mild-moderate; 3: moderate; 4: moderate-severe; 5: severe).
RESULTS: The mean heartburn score in patients treated with esomeprazole more rapidly decreased than those receiving other PPI. Complete resolution of heartburn was also more rapid in patients treated with esomeprazole for 5 d compared with omeprazole (P = 0.0018, P = 0.0098, P = 0.0027, P = 0.0137, P = 0.0069, respectively), lansoprazole (P = 0.0020, P = 0.0046, P = 0.0037, P = 0.0016, P = 0.0076, respectively), and pantoprazole (P = 0.0006, P = 0.0005, P = 0.0009, P = 0.0031, P = 0.0119, respectively). There were no significant differences between the four groups in the rate of endoscopic healing of reflux esophagitis at week 8.
CONCLUSION: Esomeprazole may be more effective than omeprazole, lansoprazole, and pantoprazole for the rapid relief of heartburn symptoms and acid reflux symptoms in patients with reflux esophagitis.
